HOUSTON (AP) - The Houston Texans' decision to snub Heisman Trophy winner Reggie Bush and sign defensive end Mario Williams with the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft has cut a slack-jawed swath across the NFL.
But general manager Charley Casserly said the move Friday night shouldn't be that surprising.
"I think if people had just listened to what we had said, they would have seen that we were serious about Mario Williams," Casserly said. "Once we brought him in here our statements never changed that we were seriously considering him for the first pick in the draft and I understand that people didn't believe it, but we always said it and we believed it."
